Houghton County Marina is a public boat ramp in Houghton County, Michigan, on Keweenaw Waterway. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Ontonagon to Upper Entrance of Portage Canal MI, Upper Entrance of Portage Canal to Eagle River MI and Point Isabelle to Lower Entrance of Portage Canal MI.
The main water here is Point Isabelle to Lower Entrance of Portage Canal MI. Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 45023. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 17.6 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
